Heriot-Watt Data• Mirrors the ECU Statistical Reports Part 1: Staff and Part 2:
Students• Is retrieved from the Higher Education Statistical Agency returns
for staff and students• Provides helpful baseline information for benchmarking and
developing Equality Outcomes• Does not cover all Protected Characteristics• Not ALL 279 data tables used (some are replicas tables)• All HWU data is for Academic Year 2010/11

Heriot-Watt Data
The presentation outlines what the data tells us
The data raises questions rather than providing answers
There is a need for ‘diagnosis’ and further discussion around the context behind some of the data
Equal pay data is available but not included

Data Summary
The Data shows is that in many respect HWU is very like the national HEI
Some of the data refers to small numbers BUT that doesn’t mean its insignificant
Some of the trend data (specifically students) tell us that if we want to change…we need to do something different!

Headline issues…
7
There is a strong case for prioritising gender related issues across academia with a STEM focus •Less females in research related roles•Less females enrolling in SET focused subjects•Static student intake data over time
Should we do more to support UK- Domiciled BME students to reach their full potential•BME students less likely to achieve 1st and 2:1 than the national picture - BUT small numbers within the data
How do we address the support needs of Disabled Staff and Students within a shrinking funding environment?•Significant growth in numbers not qualifying for DSA and likely increase in support needs•Very low staff disclosure means some staff are without adequate support
We show that the age profile of our staff is similar to the National picture but we’re different when it comes to our students•What opportunities does our age range provide HWU for growth of student intake? Does this link to the WP agenda?

• Heriot-Watt has a lower % of females overall in the staff population than both the UK and Scottish totals
• The following tables examine this more closely

Key Messages from the data
Gender•Higher number of males in females in Professorial roles•Female academic ‘drop off’ in research related roles•Reasonably static student entrance figures for males and females since 2003
Disability Low levels of disability declaration for both staff and studentsGrowth in number of disabled students not in receipt of DSA – could have financial implications for HWU
57
![Page 58: Equality & Diversity What the Data Tells Us 2010/11](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013100/551ae23f55034606048b59e5/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Key messages
Ethnicity Most staff from a White background ( same for UK and non UK national)Most UK domiciled students from White backgroundsAttainment levels of UK domiciled BME students is lower in SET areas for HWU and lower than the national average
Age•Pretty similar picture for HWU staff as nationally – but less ‘younger’ academics •Age profile of our students is interesting, high number of ‘Other UG’ in the 22-25 age range – could require more analysis
58
![Page 59: Equality & Diversity What the Data Tells Us 2010/11](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013100/551ae23f55034606048b59e5/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
What next?The data raises more questions than answers and provides us with helpful starting points for developing our Equality Outcomes and making links to the University Strategy:
There is a strong case for prioritising gender related issues across academic and focusing on SET•Less females in research related roles•Less females enrolling in SET focused subjects•HWU to increase research intensification and increase no. of PhD students… how can we use this opportunity?
Should we do more to support UK- Domiciled BME students to reach their full potential•BME students less likely to achieve 1st and 2:1 than the national picture - small numbers but this could link to the support we might put in place for WP?
How do we address the support needs of Disabled Staff and Students within a shrinking funding environment?•Significant growth in numbers not qualifying for DSA and likely increase in support needs•Very low staff disclosure means some staff are without adequate support•We need to do something different…Student Enrolment data, HR data cleaning , Census
We show that the age profile of our staff is similar to the National picture but we’re different when it comes to our students•What opportunities does our age range provide HWU for growth of student intake? Does this link to the WP agenda?
